Abstract
Knowledge translation approaches to implement guidelines? Plan, assess, tailor, and learn
Highlights
From Knowledge transfer in primary care: the model of allergic respiratory diseases Quebec City, Canada. 7 May 2010
Three weeks after the mailing of national Asthma Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines to New Zealand general practitioners, only 46% of survey responders were able to locate the received guidelines, 12% had read them in detail, and only 20% indicated that it would change their practice [1]
It is critical to assess the barriers and facilitators faced by the target audience as well as the potential solutions proposed ideally by the target audience, in order to tailor the KT intervention
Summary
From Knowledge transfer in primary care: the model of allergic respiratory diseases Quebec City, Canada. 7 May 2010. Passive dissemination of guidelines to health care professionals is insufficient to change practice. In the face of information overload and guideline burnout among physicians [2], there is evidence that active dissemination with a simple actionable message may be more effective [3].
